Snapdragon Prime is (hopefully) the last big update this ENB setup will get.The main goal hasn't changed: This is primarily meant to be used for (character) screenshots,therefore the hardware requirements are quite high by default. Newer versions are more tweaked for performance as before, but still a bit demanding. I also included an alternative (less distracting) DoF that will boost your fps by a good amount, in case you want to use this for regular gameplay. This is for convenience, however the settings can of course be tweaked to get even more fps - if you have some basic ENB knowledge.

This ENB also features a unique set of profiles (26+3) you can swap on-the-fly.Check the provided help folder on how to change them ingame!

If you're looking for the most realistic ENB, this is probably not the right thing for you. The purpose of these picture profiles is to create a unique, cinematic look.That often means blown out highlights, pitchblack darkness, and of course... a prominent Depth of Field effect.If that's what you're looking for, have fun with this setup. But please, read the instructions and help below before asking questions.

As with every ENB setup - enblocal.ini settings are something that must be adjusted to your own system!Once you set it up right, you can keep it & use it with any ENB setup out there.Use guides like this to get your settings right.

UPDATE 4.3:Included all optional LUTs in the main file, resulting in a total of 26 unique profiles.Improved outdoor lightingVarious minor tweaks

Quick preview I made:

____________________

You can still get the previous (classic)All-Is-Vain & Snapdragon standalone versions in the download section.These older versions are a bit more specialized in what they do.Some people created some amazing shots with these setups, that's why I left them available.

Both also require NLA 2.0 (just check the readme).Even older, non-NLA versions are still available on my blog page.

You can swap between these profiles at any time, without leaving the game.

I tried to cover as many styles as possible, so you can switch and swap depending on your character or location.As I mentioned above, currently there are 26 unique styles to choose from, including:

DEFAULTBasic, flat look. This is basically the previous main version of Snapdragon.It can produce a nice look, but the other profiles are recommended over this one.

SNAPDRAGONThis one comes closest to the adjustements I usually did with my older ENBs, and it's probably my favourite.ALL-IS-VAINThis profile obviously tries to imitate the previous All-Is-Vain standalone version.

THANKS EVERYONE FOR MAKING SHOWCASE VIDEOS & SREENSHOTS!You can watch all of them in the videos/image tab!

Feel free to add your own screenshots and videos. Please understand that I can't feature all of them on the front page.Thanks for contributing!

Hodilton was kind enough to create a new showcase for the Prime Update.Including how to switch style and how to disable the DoF. Enjoy!

Like every other ENB setup out there, this one requires you to get the latest ENB binaries (Wrapper version) available at enbdev.comIn addition to that, you should also get & install ENBhelper. Drop those files along with my ENB in your Skyrim folder.Once you did that and installed the other required files mentioned below, you should also adjust the VRAM/RAM values in enblocal.ini.See the relevant part in this STEP guide! (Scroll down to "ReservedMemorySizeMb" and "VideoMemorySizeMb")_________________________

If this is your first ENB (and if so, be aware that this one is meant to be used by advanced users), you'll also need to adjust your skyrimprefs.ini and change these values:

No, ELFX Weather or COT (or others) won't make your game crash. But my weather settings are written for NLA weather codes.If you're using a different mod, then the codes are different and ENB won't take advantage of the weather system, instead using fallback (default) settings from the main enbseries.ini file.

>>For visualized guides, check the help folder in the main download.<<

You can toggle ENB on/off with Shift+F12.You can open up ENB GUI with Shift+Enter.Swap Picture Profiles in the ENBEFFECT.FX inside the ENB GUI.Click on TECHNIQUE, and choose in the dropdown menu.

You can toggle individual effects (like the DoF) on and off on the left side of the GUI in the [EFFECT] section.You can adjust the Depth of Field in the shaders window. The DoF is labeled as "enbdepthoffield.fx". Adjust the focal point, near/far blur curve and bokeh radius depending on your picture/screenshot setup.Furthermore, "enbeffect.fx" is interesting if you want to adjust vibrance, contrast and black/white values."effect.txt" will allow you to adjust grain (enabled by default) as well as sharpening.

To get the highest quality screenshots, use >>PRINT SCREEN<< (not >Insert<).Pictures will be deposited in your Skyrim folder.

For screenshots, disable your Skyrim UI (enter "tm" in your console), go into freefly mode ("tfc" or "tfc 1" in console for freezing time) and adjust your field of view ("fov XX" in console, XX being the fov number)

I also made a quick walkthrough video, showing the usual way I set up screenshots:
